6 Baking Supplies Store Success Stories [2023]
Every bakery requires a constant supply of baking tools and ingredients to run effectively.
A bakery supplies store is a sweet spot for entrepreneurs who are passionate about bakery business ideas but do not want to sell baked products. They sell bakeware, ingredients, sprinkles and toppings, cake boards and drums, clamshell boxes, icing supplies, decorating tips, and other candy supplies.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a baking supplies store:
1. Gloria's Cake & Candy Supplies ($240K/year)
Linda Gonzalez (from LOS ANGELES) started Gloria's Cake & Candy Supplies almost 7 years ago.
Hi! I’m Linda Gonzalez, and I own and operate a third-generation family-owned business - Gloria’s Cake & Candy Supplies. We are NOT a bakery, we sell everything you need to make-bake-decorate-transport your cakes-cupcakes-cookies-candies and chocolates.
Within 6 months we went from 1-2 star reviews on Google & Yelp to 4-5 star reviews. Since buying the shop I’ve increased revenues by about 60% and am looking at the possibility of franchising. My stress level going from the corporate world to meeting-greeting-helping real people every day is so different. Someone thanks me every day for keeping the shop going and being here! You don’t always get that in the corporate world.
